2014 Citroen DS3 1.6L Diesel · BJ64 AEB

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent inspection conducted on 8 July 2025 at 90,756 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. This follows a period of clean passes in 2024 and 2022, suggesting that the previous owners have proactively addressed mechanical issues before they escalated into failures. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,500 miles per year. Between July 2022 at 70,142 miles and July 2025 at 90,756 miles, the car covered over 20,000 miles at a steady rate that generally prevents the issues associated with long periods of standing, such as seized calipers. The single failure recorded in August 2023 at 79,005 miles was immediately rectified, as evidenced by the pass on the same day without further testing. Given the clean recent history, a buyer should still focus their physical inspection on common wear points for the DS3 that are not always captured by the MOT tester. Examine the front suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking, as these often degrade around the 90,000-mile mark. Check the brake discs for uneven wear or thinning, and inspect the underside for any developing corrosion on the exhaust or mounting points to ensure the structural integrity remains sound despite the clean digital record.
